The demonstratorsThe demonstratorsFEB rev. B:• Every second channel bondable.• Still good for lab tests for timing studies or ADC response (without clustering).FEB rev. C:• All channels are usable• But thermal stability becomes an issue.Detector-FEB cable:• Turns out to work if shielded properly.Detectors of CBM01 and CBM02 type “behave” similarly (bad), poor charge collection at n-sides.FEB 4nx:• Cooling plates improve thermal stability• Problems with surviving potential of the chips on board.• Beam time : vastly different count rates in different stations caused by the beam.
Conclusion: depletion conditions should be controlled carefully.

Energy calibrationEnergy calibrationis important for beam time data analysis and
estimates of signal-to-noise performance, charge collection efficiency, etc.
Cons: capacitance is small => strongly depends on stray capacitance.
CV Q
Q=C∙V
Create known voltage step over known capacitance
Use x-rays with Si strip detector
Pros: well defined energy. Range of 59 keV electrons
is ~ 15 μm => full energy is absorbed.

Calibration lineCalibration line
Energy calibration is obtained, but extrapolated pedestal amplitude is ~3 kElectrons. Possible reasons: non-linearity, bias due to peak detector.

Crosstalk problem – using laser pulsesCrosstalk problem – using laser pulses
XT - signal transmitted in one channel creates undesired effect in another channel.
Crosstalk in detector vs. crosstalk in read-out chip. n-XYTER review meeting: December 11th, 2009. The way to go: create signals using laser in isolated
channels, look for the response in neighboring channels.

Conclusions I
Energy calibration has been done.
Energy gain = 110 e-/ADC count.
Pedestal “amplitude” depends on VbiasS voltage.
Conditions for pedestal zero “amplitude” have been determined, but then the dynamic range is reduced.
![Page 24: Performance test of STS demonstrators Anton Lymanets 15 th CBM collaboration meeting, April 12 th, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e4d5503460f94b43054/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

N-XYTER Gain depends on VbiasS voltage.
“Sag” in pedestal profile depends on chip power consumption => to be addressed in n-XYTER engineering run.
Crosstalk in the chip has digital nature and depends on overall chip activity.

Conclusions III – Demonstrator Systems Problems with charge collection in CBM01
and CBM02 – need to control sensor bias. Front-end boards: no operational 4nx-
boards and few 1nx-bords are left (this poses a threat to the upcoming beam time).
